As of December 1st, Tech Data Canada is a Canadian distributor for Autodesk, the vendor of 2D and 3D design, engineering and entertainment software, bringing Autodesk’s full line to authorized resellers in Canada.
“We’re very excited to introduce the complete Autodesk line of products to our line card,” said Greg Myers, vice-president of marketing at Tech Data Canada. “Autodesk has created solid traction within the IT community by successfully partnering with industry-leading corporations to demonstrate innovation and optimization within their IT environments. Our expanded relationship with Autodesk will build on this success by offering authorized resellers a choice of distributors, where before there was only one option for purchasing authorized products in Canada. Our dedicated resources at Tech Data will make sure the transition for their authorized resellers is a seamless one.”
“Autodesk has made the decision to utilize multiple distributors in Canada in an effort to align our business practices across the Americas,” said Steve Blum, senior vice president, Americas sales. “We have enjoyed a successful and long-term partnership with Tech Data in the U.S. and other parts of the world, and it is only natural to extend that relationship into Canada. Using multiple distributors has proven beneficial for VARs, giving them additional options for distribution and order fulfillment.”
